Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka didn’t make any trades ahead of the deadline, but his recent inactivity on doesn’t mean there couldn’t be a trade in the relatively near future. In fact, there’s still potential for something major to go down in the offseason, according to The Athletic’s Jovan Buha. “The Lakers plan to use the three picks that they will have available this summer … to pursue a star via trade,” Buha wrote recently. “Three potential targets are Donovan Mitchell, Trae Young and Kyrie Irving, according to team and league sources.” The Lakers and Irving have long flirted with…

Many names have emerged as potential targets for the Purple and Gold, but NBA analyst Jovan Buha believes that the Atlanta Hawks’ Trae…

Vincent Kompany has never had much luck taking on Liverpool at Anfield. Despite all of his success with Manchester City over the years, the Belgian never won at the stadium in eight visits as a player. That continued today as Kompany took charge of his first game as a manager at Liverpool’s home, losing 3-1 with Burnley. But despite the defeat, the Clarets actually played very well indeed. A top performance from Caoimhin Kelleher was needed as Burnley were left to rue missed chances. And speaking to BBC Sport after the game, Kompany admitted that he’d never been on a…

The Pittsburgh Steelers were the dominant team of the 1970s. It was a decade that saw multiple dynasties emerge.

The Steelers dominated the decade with four championships in six seasons. They secured the title by beating Landry’s Cowboys in two of the most exciting Super Bowls in the history of the sport. On Wednesday, one of the stars of those Steelers teams, Mel Blount, joined The…

The New York Jets changing of the guard at the receivers coach position is now complete. Less than two weeks after hiring former Jets wideout and coach Shawn Jefferson to guide their receivers next season, former coach Zach Azzanni has joined the Pittsburgh Steelers in the same capacity, per NJ.com. Azzanni, who coached five seasons with the Denver Broncos before coming to New York, spent just one season with the Jets. Under Azzanni’s tutelage, the team’s pass-catchers struggled due to poor quarterback play and ineffective talent management. In fact, Pro Football Focus ranked them 31 of 32 NFL teams. The…

In a move seemingly engineered to make football fans feel old, the son of one of the early 2000s’ most consistent wide receivers has chosen a college for next season.

While Pittsburgh Steelers fans may have had mixed reactions to the hiring of new Offensive Coordinator Arthur Smith, the players seem to be thrilled. This is especially true of the Steelers’ top two running backs, Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren. Smith will likely bring an increased focus on the run game, which is good for the duo that has been doing a great job splitting carries the past two seasons. Smith was most recently the head coach of the Atlanta Falcons and wasn’t exactly successful during his three seasons there. However, most analysts agree that Smith was an outstanding offensive…
